Guang,
Working in tksurfer, be sure to first do to Edit > Deselect Label and
Edit > Unmark all Vertices just to make sure nothing else is chosen besides the
4 vertices you are interested in (unless you are sure that's all you have
clicked on). Then click on the 4 vertices you want to mark. After you have
chosen the last one, go to Tools > Labels > New Label from Marked
Vertices. Then File > Label > Save Selected Label naming it whatever you
want with the .label extension.
You can then run:
mris_anatomical_stats -f blah.stats -l blah.label subjid lh
changing the hemi to whichever one you made the label on.
The resulting stats file should have 4 under NumVert otherwise it didn't
work.
